Re: best comebacks in boxing
Evander Holyfield -vs.- Bert Cooper
I always enjoyed Evander Holyfield's comeback vs. Bert Cooper. Cooper was hitting Evander with some thunderous shots and almost had him canvassed in R 3.... then Evander reached in deep and turned the tide. man that was a great watch. a must see for fight fans who have not seen it.. you will enjoy !

Michael Nunn -vs.- James Toney... there are quite a few..

michael watson vs chris eubank 2
meldrick taylor vs chavez
iran barkley vs thomas hearns
rocky marciano vs jersey joe walcott
george foreman vs michael moorer
yvon durelle vs archie moore
john tate vs mike weaver
I have to say Chavez over Meldrick Taylor. 2 seconds left in the fight. Until we see someone score a come from behind KO with 1 second left, it doesn't come any closer than that?

yea it does mate i mentioned shannon briggs one just read this
Briggs won the fight with 1 second left, reminiscent of Chavez vs. Meldrick Taylor. Liakohvich down twice in round 12. The second knockdown knocked Liakhovich out of the ring in a similar fashion to Hasim Rahman during his knockout loss to Oleg Maskaev. Had the ref allowed the fight to continue after the second knockdown, Lyakhovich would have kept his title with a draw.
